A diamond is by far the hardest material on earth. On the Mohs scale of hardness -- ranked 1 to 10 -- diamonds are 10, which is more than 10 times harder than the closest at 9, a ruby - corundum (aluminium oxide). The stone, marble, is usually in the 6-7 range. A toy marble can be made from glass, clay, steel, or agate, none of which is as hard as a diamond.
Diamonds are measured in CARATS. Purity of gold is in KARATS. A 14 carat diamond would be an extremely large diamond- about the size of a marble. Value is based on carat weight, cut, color, and clarity- but that would be a multi-million dollar stone in all likelihood. But I think you are looking at marking of the metal.
The value of a diamond depends on its cut, its clarity, its colour and its carat weight. A local jeweler can give you the answer you want.
A diamond of this weight is unknown, therefore, is not possible to value.
Yes. A diamond cutter can help you plan a new cut for an existing cut-diamond. Be aware that carat weight will be lost in this process and usually, depending on its clarity, could devalue or improve the value of the diamond. For example, the diamond cutter may be able to plan a cut that renders an Internally Flawless diamond a Flawless diamond. This may increase its value. However, if a different cut is desired and the carat-weight loss is significant, the diamond may be devalued.

Marble has value as a building material, a raw material for sculpting and decorative pieces, and as a source of calcium carbonate.
Diamond is the hardest material among granite, limestone, marble, and diamond. Diamond ranks at a 10 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, while granite, limestone, and marble each fall lower on the scale.
by hitting it with marble, diamond or other really tough minerals.

Their value is determined by the value of the art, not the value of the medium.
No. you don't cut stone with fire. That is just plain stupid. You cut marble with diamond tipped blades or with water jets.

The value of a diamond depends on the quality of a diamond, which is determined by the diamond's attributes or its 4 C's (which include: color, clarity, cut and carat weight). Generally speaking, the higher the quality of the diamond, the higher its value will be.
Diamond weight per se is not valued as a single component of a diamond's overall value. Weight is included with colour, cut and clarity to value a diamond.
